MIKIO SAKABE - The Pastel Colours Designer

Born 1976 March 19th. Graduated from the Fashion Department, Royal Academy of Fine Arts in 2006. To propose and dispatch new gender from Tokyo to the World.Sakabe’s women’s clothing line is best defined as a hybrid of different archetypes for women, combining the aspects of child-like doll clothing with different aspects of the modern business woman, traditional Japanese women’s clothing and a modern, streetwear inspired flair. Examples of his hybrids include the use of a denim miniskirt with a business suit jacket and a tie or the sleek, single color clothing of a modern doll with punk rock styled cuts. Other concepts such as rubberized boots and excess details on pockets and seems draw attention to otherwise simple, withdrawn clothing.
